I've noticed quite a few games where Anti Aliasing is forced into the game but no option to turn it off in their settings.    I have all AA options completely disabled in the control panel but it still doesn't override the applications AA. 
 
Is there something I'm missing, can AA be universally killed somewhere in the control panel?

    I haven't seen many games that force it but maybe its worth mentioning which one since some games. My guess is if it's baked into the game as enabled they think the game would run fine on anything without the need to turn it off.

    Only think I could venture a guess at is using nvidia inspector, that can do things that the control panel can't but I don't know a ton of stuff about it, only ever used it to apply custom SLI profile that I've seen, but it has a ton of other stuff.
    as for why you'd want to disable SLI, some people don't like the blurring effect that full screen AA methods make (like FXAA or TXAA) so that's a reason to turn it off even if it runs fine with it on. (and you might gain a few FPS regardless)

    Thanks Hoggle and mystory for your helpful responses, as opposed to one word answers ;-)
     
    I recently purchased "The Dark Eye: Demonicon" and a new RTS called "Armed to the Gears." off of steam.    It's funny how Anti-aliasing hits my vision like a freight train.  I see the blurring and washed out textures instantly.      Both these games had it and I looked into it:
     
    - According to the wide screen gaming wiki for Demonicon it has some "baked in anti aliasing via post processing "
     
    - I wrote to the dev of Armed to the Gears and he admitted it uses anti-aliasing but there is no option to remove it.  Nice guy he was. He was the one who actually suggested using the nvidia control panel to override it, which is why I made this thread.
     
    Ah a nvidia control panel where you can universally override AA, Chromatic Aberration, Motion Blur, Depth of Field, Film Grain and Vignette would be a dream come true for me :)     I am trying to play a video game, not simulate a movie camera.
     
    Next driver upgrade I'll take a thorough look at the inspector.
